1 Name: Date: Block: BIOLOGY 621 Identification of the Snorks INTRODUCTION: In this simulation activity, you will examine the DNA sequence of a fictitious organism - the Snork. Snorks were discovered on the planet Dee Enae in a distant solar system. Snorks only have one chromosome with eight genes on it. Your job is to analyze the genes of its DNA and determine what traits the organism has and then sketch the organism. For simplicity, the gene sequences are much smaller than real gene sequences found in living organisms. Each gene has two versions that result in a different trait being expressed in the snork. The genes are listed in the chart below. Genes Protein (Amino Acid Sequence) #1: Body Covering val - ser - leu Hairless val - ser - lys Hairy #2: Body Style tyr - pro - gln - gln - lys Plump val - pro - thr - pro - lys Skinny #3: Legs leu - leu - leu - pro 3 legged leu - leu - ser - ala 2 legged #4: Head Shape ala - val - val Round head val - ala - ala Square head #5: Tails his - ile Tail his - his No tail #6: Body Pigment ser - pro - val Blue pigment (hair/skin) val - phe - tyr Red pigment (hair/skin) #7: Eyes asn - ile - leu - leu - pro - thr Small slanted eyes asn - iso - pro - pro - pro - thr Large round eyes #8: Mouth val - asn - asn - ala Circular mouth asn - asn - asn - ala Rectangular mouth #9: Ears phe - ser - his Pointed standing-up ears phe - phe - his Rounded floppy ears #10: Arms arg - tyr - cys - lys Long spaghetti-like arms arg - arg - asn - thr Short stumpy arms PROCEDURE: 1. Each of the following DNA samples was taken from volunteer snorks. Your teacher will assign you one or more of the DNA samples. Your job is to first transcribe the complementary mrna of your assigned DNA sample(s). 2. Using the amino acid chart translate the genes in the mrna into proteins. Remember that AUG is the "start" codon, and it signifies the beginning of a gene. The end of a gene will be signaled with one of the three "stop" codons (UAA, UAG, and UGA). There may be some "junk" in between genes - Watch out! 3. After you have finished translating your mrna strand into proteins, determine the organism's phenotype (how the organism looks). 4. Sketch a picture of your assigned snork(s).

2 Use either of the following amino acid charts to translate your mrna into a protein.
